| The Chair of Free Enterprise |
| The Murchison Chair of Free Enterprise was established with a mission to create and nurture a culture of technology innovation, creativity, leadership and enterprise at UT-Austin and the global community that we serve. Dr. Steven Nichols has been the Director of the Chair since 2001. The Chair’s efforts to promote technology entrepreneurship have been recognized nationally, most recently by Dr. Nichols’s receipt of the National Collegiate Inventors and Innovators Alliance Olympus Award for innovation education. The centerpiece of these efforts is the Idea to Product® (I2P®) Program. |
